No. Any ISP can offer you the same. What gets back to the ISP is
identical to what gets back via ADSL.

That's not always the case. If the FTTP was an openreach install, then
yes any ISP that can purchase connectivity from openreach can provide
the service.

There are a number of fibre installers other than openreach though, and
some will only deal with a preferred ISP. Some also sell to a range of ISPs.

For example I have one customer in Basildon that is on a symmetric
100/100 fibre service provided by a local area fibre installer that only
covers a few towns in Essex. However the customer's ISP is TalkTalk
business (who to be fair seem massively more competent then the retail
out). Virgin, EE, Gigaclear, and others all install their own fibre as
well.
